glibc: stack-based buffer overflow in netgroup cache

A stack-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the glibc netgroup cache. In certain conditions, its possible to trigger a stack-based buffer overflow condition that can lead to a denial of service and potentially other malicious actions that impact confidentiality and integrity...

glibc: Out of bounds write in iconv may lead to remote code execution

An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in the ISO-2022-CN-EXT plugin for glibc's iconv library. When converting from UCS4 charset, adding certain escape charterers is required to indicate where the charset was changed to the library. During this process, iconv improperly checks the boundaries of...

glibc: netgroup cache assumes NSS callback uses in-buffer strings

A flaw was found in the glibc netgroup cache. The buffer-resizing code in addgetnetgrentX assumes that all string pointers point into the supplied buffer. This can potentially lead to memory corruption and cause a crash...

glibc: null pointer dereferences after failed netgroup cache insertion

A flaw was found in the glibc netgroup cache. After a failed cache insertion, addgetnetgrentX tries to send the non-existing response after the not-found header. This can lead to a null pointer dereference that causes a crash or exit...
